Hello everyone. I have a 3D scanner that i use in place of impressions for making retainers. Unfortunately my lab charges me $15 per print using an Objet printer. I think I can reduce my costs to <$5 per model with my own printer but I don't want to spend $20K for an Objet.
Is there an Ultimaker2 user who would be willing to print a model for me and mail it to my office so I can check for accuracy and detail? I would also like to know how long it takes to print and how much material is used so I can estimate costs.

I am willing to compensate for time and materials
